Code Optimizations is an AI-based service running on Azure Application Insights that uses telemetry gathered by the Application Insights Profiler for .NET to analyse runtime behaviour, find performance bottlenecks down to individual methods, and provide actionable suggestions. Developers can view aggregated data over time (defaulting to a rolling 24‑hour window, with history up to 30 days) for their production and non-production environments.

Godot Engine has been gaining in popularity for game design for good reason, particularly for light 2D mobile games. As we note in our pick of the best game development software, it's free, open-source and relatively easy to use with its GDscript scripting language. And now it's just got a whole bunch better with the release of Godot 4.5. The latest version introduces both big and small changes across the software, making it more powerful and practical for both game design and VFX work.

Observability directly improves system stability and availability. The survey revealed that 75% of businesses report a positive return on their observability investments. Nearly one in five (18%) say they are realizing a 3-10x return on investment. For businesses, the top benefits of observability are: Reduced unplanned downtime (55% of leaders) Improved overall operational efficiency (50%) Reduced security risk (46%) Engineering Efficiency Observability also improves engineering productivity and satisfaction by reducing the time engineers spend on reactive tasks.

Strictly speaking, PHP is... an interpreter with compiler-like qualities. the nature of PHP (or Javascript, for that matter) is more of an... interpreter with multiple passes. Javascript does execute line by line.... but it also knows about functions within the entire scope of the current line's execution, even before encountering the function declaration in the code in its pass. So... it's parsed the file, one might call that compiled it, and then executes it line by line.

Monday is set to launch an AI agent builder tool that can automate a range of work management tasks, the company announced at its Elevate conference on Wednesday. The agents don't just answer questions, they "execute tasks, connect systems, and learn from context," said Daniel Lereya, chief product and technology officer at Monday, in an email conversation with Computerworld. "This frees teams and individuals from repetitive execution, allowing them to focus on creativity, strategy, and human judgment." Monday's agents can take action across different teams and app integrations he said, as well as interact via multiple communication channels, including email, SMS and phone calls,

If you're just getting started with SQL, it can feel overwhelming to know where to begin. The good news? Writing your first queries is simpler than you think. In this beginner SQL tutorial, we'll go through ten of the most common SQL query examples that every new learner should practice. By the end, you'll not only understand how to write SQL queries, you'll also feel confident applying them in real projects.

The new platform will offer a dedicated team of engineers, spread globally, who will oversee and guide enterprises through the entire transformation process, including deployment. A typical modernization journey for an enterprise at MongoDB, according to Kolhar, will include a consulting process that will include discussions on expected pricing, and after that, the AI-driven platform will be used to conduct tests for existing applications, creating a baseline that captures how legacy systems behave in production.

Every revolution rewrites the rules of innovation. Today, in the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution, we're still stuck with centralised control. Centralised control keeps decisions, resources, and standards concentrated at the top, leaving teams dependent on permission rather than contribution. In contrast, decentralised innovation frees teams from rigid hierarchies, allowing them to solve problems together. At its best, it aligns people through shared purpose rather than imposed rules. It sounds euphoric, but too often it proves to be wishful thinking.

GNOME is a Linux desktop environment that you either love or hate. I've used GNOME and GNOME-based desktops for years and have always fallen on the side of "love." With each new release, I always find a feature or two (or a bit of extra polish) that makes me smile. The release of GNOME 49 is no different. Although there might not be any game-changing features for this release (I'm guessing the developers are holding out until the big 5-0), there's just enough to make it a worthy upgrade from 48.

You're right. Let me fix the code and properly implement the Chudnovsky algorithm, which is indeed one of the best algorithms for computing pi to many decimal places. I'll also ensure the compilation works correctly. First, let me check what went wrong with the compilation: Shell cd /Users/martinheller/Code/qwen && g++ -lgmp -lmpfr pi_value.cpp -o pi_value

DevOps.com is now providing a weekly DevOps jobs report through which opportunities for DevOps professionals will be highlighted as part of an effort to better serve our audience. Our goal in these challenging economic times is to make it just that much easier for DevOps professionals to advance their careers. Of course, the pool of available DevOps talent is still relatively constrained, so when one DevOps professional takes on a new role, it tends to create opportunities for others.

Deno 1.43 significantly enhances the language server with improved auto-completion speed, cutting response time in larger projects from six to eight seconds to under one second.

Given that corporate IT relies heavily on cloud-based infrastructure and services delivered via the public cloud, access to the data held in the cloud is paramount. Should all mission-critical data be held on-premise? What roles should digital sovereignty and digital residency play in a corporate IT strategy? These are among the questions being discussed at Forrester's forthcoming Technology & Innovation Summit in London.

Dispatchers in Akka Dispatchers are used to control the flow of execution in Akka - they can control how messages are being sent, delivered, received and processed. Based on the dispatching policy, dispatchers will route the incoming message to the respective destination. Dispatchers are what make Akka 'tick'. There are a number of different dispatchers that Akka provides readily, and also lets you write your own implementation, should you need. Here are a few dispatchers that come out of the box with Akka

At a high level, Algolia is a hosted search service that lets you easily create search indexes (think of it as a search optimized version of your content) while also providing easy libraries to add a search UI to your page itself. If you type in the search bar on top and perform a search, you'll see this yourself. My site here is static, all simple flat files with no database, so a solution like Algolia is vital. I thought I'd take a look at integrating Algolia's REST APIs with BoxLang and was able to build a quick demo in less than an hour.

Hello and welcome to Python Bytes, where we deliver Python news and headlines directly to your earbuds. This is episode 449, recorded September 15th, 2025. And I am Brian Okken. And I am Michael Kennedy. And of course, this episode, not of course, but this episode is sponsored by us. So please check out the stuff we offer you guys and everyone.

She called vibe coding a beautiful, endless cocktail napkin on which one can perpetually sketch ideas. But dealing with AI-generated code that one hopes to use in production can be "worse than babysitting," she said, as these AI models can mess up work in ways that are hard to predict. She had turned to AI coding in a need for speed with her startup, as is the promise of AI tools.

You've already covered most of the "core" JSON utilities, so that's a really solid toolkit. A few things that come to mind that could make it even more useful: JSON → Markdown / Table generator: super handy for documentation and wikis. JSON Schema → Form generator: let people paste a schema and instantly get a web form to fill in.

Give a service name: jenkins-master-service In the environment: Compute option: launch Type > Fargate Platform version : Latest In the Networking section, select the same VPC in which you have created EFS and select a Security Group (SG); select either the default or create a new one. Remember, in your SG, these ports must be allowed as an inbound rule. In the load balancing section:

Imagine this: It's 9 a.m., and your phones won't stop ringing. Your team is already juggling multiple clients while trying to manage visitors arriving on site. At the front desk, one client signs in manually on a clipboard and quietly takes a seat. Fifteen minutes later, someone asks, "Where's the 9 o'clock client?" It turns out they've been there the whole time-just waiting, unnoticed.

As we discussed in mid-August, the end of the battle between Linux paramount penguin Linus Torvalds and bcachefs boffin Kent Overstreet came to an unhappy conclusion. At the end of August, Torvalds announced that from now on, bcachefs is "externally maintained." As LWN summarized it, this means the new filesystem won't be developed as part of the main Linux kernel tree - but it hasn't been totally removed.

From the very beginning, we wanted to design the systems to be able to be continuously improved, updated over the air. It's a pattern that's happened in EVs and gotten a lot of traction, but no one had really done that before in HVAC,

Here are some examples of features you would expect out of a texture format that you're not going to find in an image format: Can you work around all these issues? Sure. You can premultiply and generate your mipmaps at load time. You can ship separate images for each cuebmap face. But now you're resigned to cheap mipmap generation, and cubemaps that are difficult to downsample correctly. You can certainly make it work,

Try to see how your work fits into your team, how your team fits into the business unit (or division or pillar or whatever your company calls it), and finally, how that works for the company, Rey said. Understand why sometimes we need to compromise on some solutions even though we don't want to. Having that mindset will make you think like a leader, and will take you faster to a leadership position,

Many note-taking apps check almost every box, but there's one feature I want that only a select few offer: local sync. Also: The best smart notebooks: Expert tested and reviewed Most note-taking apps offer remote sync by way of cloud or third-party storage. Although I'm not taking notes of a terribly sensitive nature, I do have some notes that I'd rather a third party not have access to.

Version 0.2 appeared on September 6. As Linux benchmarking site Phoronix reports, the big gains are in performance. Until recently, the new Rusty tools were about ten times slower than the traditional GNU versions implemented in C, but as of this release, they have leapfrogged the older versions and are now 50 percent faster. This probably won't make much visible difference to most people in daily use, but safer and faster sounds like a good combination.

National Information Solutions Cooperative (NISC), a leading provider of enterprise software and solutions to energy and communications companies, will host its premier learning event- the Member Information Conference (MIC) - September 22-25 at the Kentucky International Convention Center (KICC) in Louisville, Kentucky. This year also marks the 50 th anniversary of the popular user conference. NISC will provide nearly 3,000 individuals from across the U.S. and Canada the opportunity to connect with NISC staff, network with their peers,

It procedurally generates foliage in minutes with enough detail to strand up to close examination. Forest Generator is a tool created by VFX artist Andreas Dürr AKA Cinematic Cookie. It allows the rapid creation of realistic procedural forests using Geometry Nodes in Blender. There are currently four different biomes, allowing the creation of deciduous forest, jungle, bamboo and snow-covered forest.

During Gartner's event, Palmer posited that Broadcom's VMware doesn't view hyperscalers as strategic partners and vice versa. AWS took issue with Broadcom disallowing AWS and its channel partners to resell VMware Cloud on AWS, telling CRN in May 2024 that it was "disappointed" by the news. Still, hyperscalers, including AWS, have remained interested in doing business with VMware end users "because they know over time they will convert you to 'proper cloud,'" Palmer said.

If you're interested, you need to use the Xiaomi Community app, and inside the app tap on Me and then on Beta Testing. If you are picked, you will of course get early access to HyperOS 3 builds, which will be delivered to you as over-the-air updates. As usual when it comes to such beta releases, we have to caution you against going this route on your main device,
